Very good story! I’ve never read an omegaverse story as well written.
The author plays beautifully with the genre and its tropes while changing or ignoring the more harmful or unbelievable ones.
The author manages to avoid one of my biggest pet-peeve in romance: the timing of the story. There are often inconsistencies, or the love story happens in a week, where the characters barely eat/sleep/work, with little to no consequences (I’m not even talking about the realism of building an entire relationship in a week).
All in all, Thora Woods seems to be a very promising author, and I’ll definitely read the next book in the story, and check her next works!
